Try The Body Shop, Murad, or Boscia. Also I know it is expensive but the Clarisonic has been the greatest thing for my skin. Always, always, always, remove your makeup, I don't care how tired you are, take it off. Here is my routine.
1- Remove makeup w/ Neutrogena wipes
2- Wash face w/ a gentle face cleanser (I use CeraVe) just to help make sure all of my makeup is gone.
3- Use Murad cleanser with my Clarisonic (you
can just wash like normal if you don't have one).
4- Use a toner (I like Neutrogena and Murad's is good)
5- Moisturize! Never skip this step, I use CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion and Aveeno makes a good one specifically for acne.
6- Use a spot treatment (I like Grease Lightining (Lush) or Murad
7- Now this is not for everyday but this step would go after you remove makeup and use a gentle cleanser. Face mask, I like Queen Helene's Mint Julep or The Body Shop (you can find it at Ulta or on their site). Using a mask about once or twice (when its bad) a week will help draw out impurities and help dry up acne.

I think it depends on the type of acne like if it's hormonal or regular. In my experience the best thing to do is drink lots of water, it hydrates and clears the face by washing the toxins out of your body. Also eating healthy and washing your face a few times a day. If that doesn't help you could try tea tree oil (I use the Burts Bees herbal blemish stick), salicylic acid, witch hazel or benzoyl peroxide.
